TWSDAC-DSD-SE

The Well Segmented discrete DSD Single Ended Digital to Analog Converter

DSD single ended discrete DAC

The TWSDAC-DSD is a Single Ended DSD discrete DAC which accepts up to DSD512 sample rate.

The TWSAFB-LT FIFO buffer and the TWSAFB-XMOS USB receiver provide the DSD output to
feed the DAC in single ended architecture and RTZ mode (Return to Zero). The DSD DAC can
even work when driven by any other source which provides standard DSD output without RTZ.
RTZ mode is strongly recommended to get the best performance from the DSD DAC.

The TWTSEBX4 single ended line buffer is recommended to null the offset and provide the
suitable gain (up to 1.8V rms). The line buffer fits the DAC board.
